(CS/JLS) After sitcoms “Weemseesdet” and “Comeback”, Luxembourg TV channel RTL, together with the Film Fund, is looking for new ideas from any genre to add to its schedule.

Unlike previous years, when the channel was explicitly looking for sitcom material, this year anything goes – from fiction to documentary or animation. The length is also flexible – pitches for shows ranging between three and 52 minutes will be accepted.

RTL Station Manager Steve Schmit explained that the audiovisual sector in Luxembourg has grown considerably over the past years, with young creatives bringing in new ideas. RTL and the Film Fund wish to collect these ideas and then start developing the potential.

Proposals need to contain a title and description of the concept, as well as outlines of the production process and necessary resources, and a budget.

The application deadline is May 1 and four copies of the proposal need to send to either RTL (45 Boulevard Pierre Frieden, L-1543 Luxembourg) or the Film Fund Luxembourg (5 Rue Large, L-1917 Luxembourg).
